Isle of Wight foodbank are very concerned that in only six months they've provided 2,050 emergency supplies to local people. Due to Universal Credit and as the colder weather draws in, more people will be needing their help.

No mum should feel they have let their children down because of something outside their control, like illness or a delayed benefit payment, has thrown the family into crisis. Whatever you are able to give this Mother’s Day will help local mums - who are struggling - to know that there are people who care.

A big thank you from Isle of Wight Foodbank for all your help last year. Due to the rising demand for food parcels around the island, they need more financial donations and donations of non-perishable food.
